Hey guys. I have an offer out on an RZ350 basket case, and it has me wondering about RZ prices. If you've either gotten an RZ in the past year or two, or even have one for sale now, what kind of condition and how much was/is it?

Only ones around the net are either perfect and >$5k or mediocre and $4k.

Well they are not cheap. But you will love it after you get it straight. Follow E-Bay and you will see the prices. I have one and if I put a price on it your jaw may hit the floor. So, I keep it.

Dave,

If it's the red framed basket case at 2SW thread, that bike was bought recently off ATL craigslist. It had a $500 asking price. Prices on RZs range from basket cases at $400 (lowest I've seen) to $13,000 for a NOS one sold recently on ebay. :shock: Decent sound runners usually are about $3000-$4000 and nicer examples above that from $4500- $6000. 8-) I've been watching them for about 4 years and the values are going up too from the trends I've noticed. They are a boatload of fun when sorted, that is for sure! :thumbup:

How basket is acceptable to you? I have several, and haven't been real anxious to get rid of them until I get the best one going. I sold the last runner several years ago for $3500 and it would probably bring $6000 now-it was pretty nice.

Lack of titles and bodywork would be the issue on the ones I would sell.

Here's the most recent picture of my girly bike. I value it at 8K not including the girl.
And no I am not going to end up jobless in a ditch cause that's my new grand daughter-in-law.

Do you think Ben has his work cut out for himself or what?
